I came across this in my newspaper yesterday: "It had an, albeit marginal, effect." The word order struck me as rather strange; I'd have put 'albeit marginal' after the noun. Placing it before doesn't seem to work in my opinion, but I'm not 100% sure, so I've put a poll up to see what others think.

"It had an, albeit marginal, effect."
yes, that is horribly wrong.
"It had an effect, albeit marginal"
This sounds better, but I believe It is also incorrect.
I would go with this:
"Albeit marginal, It had an effect"
